Chapter 019: Attitudes of All Parties (Serious Requests for Support)

In front of Wang Tianlin and Xiao Sheng, the tycoon wanted to save face for his concubine, and only after the two capable generals left did he ask Fang Yihua about the specific situation here, which was a set of "teaching his son in the hall and training his wife on the pillow".

"What the hell is going on with that, you won't be involved in it again, this time he is not at a loss, is there any room for salvation?" The tycoon is more patient with this concubine.

Fang Yihua's expression was not very good-looking, and he said a little frustratedly: "When I was discussing investment at the beginning, I had the heart to pressure him, so the conditions were set more harshly, the screening share and distribution fee were 30%, and the investment also accounted for 70%. This time it's really my eyes, I thought it was just an ordinary kid who wanted to take the opportunity to develop, but I didn't expect to make such a big move, according to the current situation, there is basically no possibility of cooperation anymore, but I will let people talk to him again, you can give him some profit in the future cooperation, if not, it can only be like this, this matter is to blame. ”

She never thought it would be like this. She just thinks that the script is very valuable for investment, and the ideal return on investment is to double or triple the sky, who knew that Mo Fei's movie could have such a good effect, and the cost had been recovered in just a week after it was released in Hong Kong.

It was true that she didn't need so much investment to make a movie at the beginning, and the budget given by Mo Fei was also 7 million to 8 million, in order to suppress Mo Fei, a very active young man, and let him know what it means to be rich and rich, and who is the customizer of the rules, she took out an extra 2 million and put it into the crew, robbing Mo Fei of 20% of the income.

If you only count commercial investment, now it seems that the Dian family is undoubtedly quite successful in this cooperation with Mo Fei, with only 6 million investment, you can get at least 30 million returns, this is still in Hong Kong, if you add the overseas box office, this transaction is really profitable.

But when I think about it, the cooperation between Wai and Mo Fei is just this time, no matter how much money you make, you can only earn this time, and the next time you make money, it will be someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with Wai's, and you may not even be able to earn screening fees for Wai's cinemas. Therefore, whether this transaction is a profit or a loss, Fang Yihua couldn't understand it better, the Shaw Brothers, who were already in danger, finally encountered a life-saving straw, but she destroyed it with her own hands.

Look at her husband's face, although he still maintains a slight smile, but his heart must be extremely sore, a lifetime of hard work is about to decay, who is not uncomfortable, and it is his own concubine who cut off the way to save his life, it is estimated that he even wants to die.

Fang Yihua also knew that she had done too much, but she didn't regret it at all, she would still do it again, she would never allow anyone who could stand on the road that blocked her control of the Wei clan and wireless, she had worked hard for thirty years to survive to her current position, and she did not allow herself to have any risks at all.

The tycoon knows his concubine very well, and all the words she said must be at least doubled in order to be the true situation of the whole thing, but now that this is the case, it is impossible to undo anything about her, so just let go of this matter.

Although he just let go of an opportunity to let the Shan clan rise again, which makes people feel really sorry and lost, but the decline of the Shan clan is inevitable, and his children are unwilling to take over this part of the industry, and he doesn't have so much to fight when he is older, so he just tosses it with her.

patted the concubine's hand and said, "Okay, you don't have to be like this, you can't force it to gain or lose, if it's really difficult to maintain, it's better to give up slowly, and wait until you have a good time to think about it." Now you can concentrate on the wireless, it is also a very meaningful thing to be able to run the wireless well, and I will always support you behind it. ”

The tycoon who has been up and down in the shopping mall for a lifetime can relax his mind to face it, but Fang Yihua can't do it, her ** of power is not a wireless satisfaction, and she can control a large number of movie stars under her hands, that feeling she has dreamed of for a long time.

Shaking his head, he said: "The current situation is not completely impossible, Hong Kong's film market is becoming more and more prosperous, if we can seize this opportunity, it is still very possible for the prosperity of the Shan family." We have artist training classes, which can create a large number of stars, which is the biggest capital of the company, and I am confident that we can revive it. ”

The tycoon nodded, but didn't say anything more. He knows very well what is going on here because the prosperity of Hong Kong films is because many capable people have begun to work alone, and the film industry has also entered the Warring States Period, because of the competition with each other, the prosperity of the film has been triggered, and the root of this prosperity is to sacrifice the achievements of the largest film company, and the current Shan can be said to be the least competitive. Anyway, she was going to let go, she wanted to toss it, and she would give it to her, and she would die when the day came.

Since the 70s, a large number of talents have emerged in the Hong Kong film industry, among which there are naturally those with outstanding vision. Fang Yihua excludes and hits young talents because of her own selfish desires, but others will not do what she does, at least the two high-level executives of Golden Harvest, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang, and Princess Jin's boss Lei Juekun, these three are all examples of supporting young people to consolidate their status in the film industry.

The success of "Sky Trap" also brought Mo Fei into the sight of these three people. Both sides attach enough importance to this rising star in the film industry, and those who can make such a movie with a box office of nearly 20 million a week will not attach too much importance to it in the Hong Kong film industry.

The first to find Mo Fei was He Guanchang's assistant Wu Xiao, who not only brought He Guanchang and Zou Wenhuai's congratulations on the success of Mo Fei's new film, but also brought the invitation of the two of them to hope that Mo Fei could join Golden Harvest, guaranteeing that Mo Fei would have the greatest autonomy, and could give as much help as possible in terms of funds, and other things such as distribution and screening were easy to discuss.

Golden Harvest's conditions are not unattractive, if it is really a Hong Kong filmmaker in the 80s, he must not even think about it, and directly agree to Golden Harvest's conditions. The biggest expense of a film is publicity, distribution and screening, almost half or more of all income will be used in these three aspects, and it is not the most part that really falls into the hands of investors, and Golden Harvest has its own distribution and screening institutions, which as long as a certain discount is given, it is a lot of money; And Golden Harvest's set is also very good, which is exactly what Mo Fei needs most at the moment.

But Golden Harvest is also a little disadvantageous, that is, there are too many satellite companies, the most famous are Chenglong's Weihe and Hong Jinbao's Baohe and several other companies, the films of these companies will be released in Golden Harvest's theaters, and they will also be filmed on Golden Harvest's set, in fact, the space left for Mo Fei is not very large.

And Mo Fei himself is not very willing to his cultural company to become someone else's satellite company, the previous record company is because there is no way, there are too many conditions required for the release of records, and Mo Fei is just arrived in Hong Kong, and it is difficult to achieve without a strong background, so he had to make this decision.

But he couldn't refuse Jiahe's goodwill because of this, so he had to choose a way of cooperation that was beneficial to both parties, and said to Wu Xiao: "Thank you Mr. Zou and Mr. He for their kindness, but I have now established a film company, and to tell the truth, Jiahe has too many children, and I'm afraid that my mother won't be able to take care of it, so let's choose another way of cooperation that is acceptable to both parties." In the future, all of our company's films will be screened in Golden Harvest's theaters, but in terms of commission ratio, I also hope that Golden Harvest can give a suitable figure. Of course, if there is a suitable opportunity, we can also consider co-production. ”

Golden Harvest and the Harvest still have some to do with each other, and before the Harvest does not completely collapse, it is impossible to fully cooperate with the Golden Harvest to avoid the possibility of the Harvest mixing in.

The representative of the golden princess who came later was the first representative of Lei Juekun, and the boss of the new art city, Mecca, came to visit in person. In 1984, when the Seven Monsters of the New Art City opened and fell apart, the big boss Princess Jin also complained a lot, and the appearance of Mo Fei just gave the New Art City a chance to remedy.

Mai Jia came to the door in person, and he was more sincere than Wu Xiaolai of Golden Harvest, and Mai Jia is also an authentic filmmaker, and he can talk about more things with Mo Fei than an assistant.

Wu Yusen joined Phoenix Culture and is preparing to start filming a new film, and the new art city already knows about it, Mai Jia said that he understands this matter very well, Wu Yusen is idle in Taiwan because of the promise of the new art city, and now he is willing to accept him, which is actually a good thing for both sides.

In the end, although Mo Fei did not accept to join Xinyicheng, there was more content in the cooperation between the two sides, including the sharing of resources between the two sides in terms of actors and artists in the future, etc., which had not been discussed with representatives of Golden Harvest before.

In the two weeks after its release, the box office of "Sky Trap" has exceeded 35 million, a height that Hong Kong films have never reached, and it is 12 million higher than last year's box office champion "Best Partner 2", which once again shook the Hong Kong film industry.

The film's overseas box office also created the history of Hong Kong films, selling the equivalent of 20 million Hong Kong dollars in Japan in just one week, which is unstoppable in other Southeast Asian countries. Even in North America, which has always been tough in this picture, it has also received more than 10 million US dollars at the box office.

"Sky Trap" has become a representative of the success of Hong Kong films, representing Hong Kong films to search for box office around the world, and then once again set the highest global box office record for Hong Kong films.

At this time, whether it was Jiahe or Princess Jin, they no longer pretended to be reserved, and sent their most sincere sincerity one after another. Coincidentally, both of them have reduced Phoenix Culture by eight percentage points in the screening commission; Regarding the cost of issuance, I didn't mention it at all, but just said that if you need to help with overseas distribution, the commission ratio will be determined, that is, don't let them lose money.

Just from these two expenses, it can be seen how harsh the conditions are, the screening commission is 30%, the distribution commission is 30%, and the investment accounts for 70%, if it is not for the big hit of this movie, Mo Fei's investment may not be able to be recovered.
